Elder Sign is one of my eldest daughter's favorite games. We have well over 100 plays of it in, so I totally agree with you on that one! Pax Transhumanity caught my eye, so I will have to see about getting it. Thanks for the video!
Thank you for showing games almost no one shows! My list is: 1 - elder sign (if we can call it small box) 2 - Arkham noir 3 - Warp’s edge 4 - Death angel 5 - Onirim 6 - Friday 7 - Mini Rogue 8 - One deck dungeon 9 - Four against darkness 10 - Hero realms + campaign expansion
You reminded me that I bought Elder Sign a long time ago and never played it! Unfortunately I just set up for Sleeping Gods so it might be a while. I just ordered Tin Helm and can’t wait to play! My favorites right now are Friday, Desolate, and One Deck Galaxy. Thanks for the video!
Oh, Sleeping Gods is so good. I hope you enjoy the experience. One Deck Dungeon is really good as well. It was one of the first games I did a tutorial playthrough for. I wish the rulebook was 1000% better. I'll have to pick up Desolate. Thanks so much for commenting and watching!
Really great set of games - many I haven't heard of! I have Crystallo - have not yet played it. I usually watch a play through video so I'll take it out and use yours to learn it. I'm enjoying your channel - the info is great but your enthusiasm and genuineness are really quite fun to watch!
Great list! Are we gonna see a playthrough of Elder Sign someday? My favorite small box games are: Friday, Floriferous, The Castles of Burgundy the Card Game, Hero Realms (and expansion... but still in a small box!), The Game, After the Virus and Onirim.
We might. I'll add it to my list of potential playthroughs. I almost put Floriferous on the list. I own After the Virus and Onirim, but haven't played them yet. Great choices!
Thanks for another great video. I was just played Dead Eye today. Two failed attempts at the final path the victory. Definitely rusty on the rules because it's the first time playing this year, even though it is light,
Thanks Daniel. Great list! I have Resist! on my radar and you have several others that look interesting. A few of my favorites are Lux Aeterna, Tiny Epic Galaxies and several Buttonshy games like ROVE. Also I am playing For Northwood right now and it is a great solo trick taking game. Highly recommended.
Thanks so much! I definitely need to pick up all of those you mentioned. I haven't seen Lux anywhere yet. But we'll see. I just ordered Spaceshipped and Ragemore from Button Shy. Next time I'll get Rove
I just found your channel and I love it! My buy-this-game list just got longer after watching this. I can't wait to find the two Hunted games - two of my favorite movies!! And I just bought Elder Sign but haven't played it yet. Great ideas here!
This video was different. I could hear and feel the excitement in your voice. I need to look into your number 1 pick. My number one is Dwellings of Eldervale. I will play a few other games but Dwellings for me is it.😁😁😁
🙂 trying more and more to be natural and off the cuff with my talking. I'm glad you could see/hear a difference. Dwellings is so good, as you know how I feel. Andromeda's Edge can't come quickly enough.
With a bit of strategy and luck I find it not very hard, and not very interesting too. I also dislike 3D effect, it’s cool for 3 minutes then you prefer play it without glasses and then cards have those blue/red borders that are disturbing. Don’t misunderstand me, components are great and art is cool, I have just more fun with other games.
A great list with refreshing ideas. I loaned out Elder Sign to my daughter and can't get it back.. lol. I need to get another one, cuz I'm getting the shakes.... lol
Hey, Dany. I must ay that I didn't expect that. Elder Sign... It is also one of my favs by many means. Not my favorite dice game, which is Too Many Bones, then D-Day Dice, but this one is a good contender for my 3rd fav dice game. The thing is that I lack of expansions. Probably getting Unseen and Gates it will hit harder. Nice vid, man. Good surprises over here and the first one was the surprise amongt surprises. Best regards.
Thank you so much! D-day dice is so good also. I want to get some more expansions for it. I haven't played Too Many Bones, but heard great things about it. Thanks for watching!
Great list! I don't own any of these games as I had to back out of the campaign for Resist at the last minute. Definitely agree with having to find small box games to save space. My problem is that I put all my small box games into a big box and forget they're there.
Crystallo is the only game I played on your list. I'll have to check out SuperHot The Card Game sometime... seems to be sold out a lot of places right now. If I were to make a small box solo list I would probably include Tiny Epic Galaxies, Tiny Epic Zombies, and Friday on the list. I don't have quite as many small box solo games, so I am not sure I could make a full list. I did one time do a list of 10 Travel Sized Games on my channel, but most of those were multiplayer games.
I think the only way I know of to buy Superhot is straight from Grey Fox. You know, I do not yet own any Tiny Epic game. I'll have to remedy that at some point. Thanks for watching 🙂
Great to see a bunch of games I hadn't heard of before. No one ever mentions with Resist how scratchy and nasty the cards are to handle and how much air is in the box. The art is great but the production lets it down in a big way imo.
@@tabletopforone my problem is I have too many games and not enough time. I know if I listed what I own it pales in comparison to all of you UA-cam content creators with game channels but still. I just resetup Gloomhaven to continue my 2 character solo campaign, I was about 15 scenerios in when I took a break b4 vacation and put it away. Played the new wrestling game ATW all time wrestling. I got in the last month, Twighlight Inscription, Glass Road, Resist, Under Falling Skies.
I'm 100% with you. I'm a stay-at-home dad of five, and don't have much time to play either. I have so many games on my list to play, but often the channel comes first, and each video takes hours. I hope you, and me, just enjoy the games we play when we can play 🙂
Great video! Enjoyed the Hunted games somewhat, but am looking forward to Wode Ridge even more. Have been very curious about The Dead Eye as a fan of their Ancient Terrible Things. Having played and love Pax Pamir 2e both multiplayer and solo, so have been curious about other Pax games. Didn’t realize Transhumanity was so small a box, definitely a theme I’m interested in. (though no multihanding for me…) Crystallo is one I’ve had my eye on for a while now, should finally be covering it for the new campaign!!
I think Wode Ridge is shipping (I didn't back it). I'm glad you are going to cover Crystallo. It's fantastic. All the pax games originally came in small boxes (even Pamir 1st edition). I don't have a favorite as they are all so good (I own Renaissance, Transhumanity, and Porfiriana)
Great video! I personally love ElderSign and I have fun all the time. Not familiar with the rest but Eiyo caught me attention. Do you know where can I buy it ? My list is: Castles of Burgundy dice version, Maquis, Tiny Epic Zombies, Galaxies and Defenders. Arkham Noir is also a small box solo game but it takes so much space.
Nice list! I need to get some of those, especially Maquis. Here is the link for Eiyo (but shipping may be high depending on where you are): shop.thundergryph.com/products/eiyo-en?_pos=1&_sid=bfcb2a942&_ss=r Thanks for watching!
Well no wonder you're running out of room, facing all your games in the Kallax that way :P Ever have problems with those games falling out? I have ... ONE! of the 10 you featured, Pax: Transhumanity. Have had Iron Helm and Tin Helm on the someday list for ... quite a few (hundred) days now.
I lucked into a used copy at a local comic convention that was priced by someone who wasn't aware of the rarity. I've never had so much fun getting my backside handed to me with that game.
Recommend you take a look at Dungeon Flee. And my roguelite The Forgotten Road campaign. 3:00 there's a Second Edition in the works for Hunted. 12:40 crystallo fell flat for me. 3:55 super hot seems to me like the failed attempt at a commercial version of Agent Decker. Agent Decker is free, better and bigger. Rules are okay.
Pax Transhumanity is one I always wanted to try but stayed away due to the high complexity. This is higher than mage knight fun but too many rules. Feel this would be the same. I played Resist thought it was okay.
Yeah, Pax Transhumanity is one that you really have to want to spend the time and energy to learn. It's not for everyone, and hard for me to table at times due to the complexity. Do you have a favorite small box game?
Some games I/we enjoy Rollway Station, Wipers Salient, Monopoly Duel (2p), Pentaquest, Warps Edge, Long Shot: The Dice Game (multiplayer) and Roll For It! Deluxe Edition (2P).
Don’t misread me, I enjoyed and Liked the video, but while watching yours video, I left several times to go and look up different games. Some I liked their look and earmarked them before coming back to watch more, others I immediately dismissed as “not the right look for me”. 🤷♂️ Maybe inserting a still shot or a clip from a play through of yours would be a nice touch for us visual heavy folks. This guys is a good example of a top 10 Solo list that’s good but the otherwise visual opposite of yours. ua-cam.com/video/P7yM5Al9lL8/v-deo.html He’s all about the components but never talks “to us”, like you do, so he misses that visual connection you have (as well as your energy). Thanks for the content. ♟️🎲♟️
Oh, no, I greatly appreciate the feedback. Thank you. I would gladly include shots of my playthroughs of those games, except I haven't recorded them yet, except for Crystallo. I think next time I'll download some pics from BGG (assuming the rights are waived). Again, I really appreciate the feedback. I've only been doing this for 6 months and have never done anything like it in my life. So feedback from my audience is valuable to me. 🙂
@@tabletopforone well not elder sign for sure haha Well I do like a lot of small box games for sure but I guess Spaceshipped by button shy games it's soooo good
Wow!!! It's fun to watch how much more comfortable you get with each video!!!!! Great job!!!
Thank you so much! I try to improve each one. Should have seen the outtakes though 😬🤣

Thank you so much. Great game!
Exactly the kind of video I’m looking for. Thanks 👌
I'm so glad you enjoyed it 🙂 Thank you.

It's crazy how long Elder Sign's been around. I still go back to it frequently.
Yeah, there's something about it that brings it back to the table. I'm glad you enjoy it!
Thanks for another great video. I was just played Dead Eye today. Two failed attempts at the final path the victory. Definitely rusty on the rules because it's the first time playing this year, even though it is light,
Thanks for watching! It is light, but very challenging. I lose quite often in that game, but sure do love it. 🙂

Just picked up Elder Sign last month and love it so far
I'm so glad you enjoy it!
Ooooh the dead eye looks so interesting!
Such a good, but challenging game. If you like quick solo card games with fun themes and art, this is a good one
With a bit of strategy and luck I find it not very hard, and not very interesting too. I also dislike 3D effect, it’s cool for 3 minutes then you prefer play it without glasses and then cards have those blue/red borders that are disturbing.

Thanks so much, Tom. Yeah, Elder Sign is a keeper 😁
Pls make a Super Hot playthrough video! Can't wait to watch it since having it in my collection for several years already....
It's definitely on my schedule 🙂
Hey, Dany. I must ay that I didn't expect that. Elder Sign...
It is also one of my favs by many means. Not my favorite dice game, which is Too Many Bones, then D-Day Dice, but this one is a good contender for my 3rd fav dice game.

That's a good point about Resist. I didn't think about it, because mine are sleeved. Thanks for watching 🙂
I just got resist last week and have played it twice and its fun, haven't tried the scenarios yet

Have you played any Pax games before?
@@tabletopforone no
If you haven't played Fantasy Flight's Death Angel, you really need to give it a go. It would make my solo Top Ten list (if I were to make one).
I would absolutely love to, but haven't been able to find it affordable. Maybe I should print-n-play it.
I lucked into a used copy at a local comic convention that was priced by someone who wasn't aware of the rarity. I've never had so much fun getting my backside handed to me with that game.
Oh wow, that's awesome. Send some of that luck my way 😁

That 100$ I think is for the whole collection, but yes you can grab it from publisher shop
I prefer Tin Helm to Iron Helm, it just plays better IMHO.
Good to know 🙂 Thanks for watching
Would 🐁 🧀 🐈 🥒 make this list or honorable mention?
It will likely make next year's list, unless I do a part 2 like I did with the hidden gems list.
